Very good price ! I bought a 1900 german empire pfennig for $1 in an antique shop....hmm...nearly mintstate....probably more like $30 !!!
The pictures of it are still on the dealer's (from germany) webpage: http://www.vcoins.com/world/ritter/store/viewItem.asp?idProduct=4714...
Yeah...you get some really circulated forees. In 16th century ireland, fake coins circulated for a 12th of their value !...
They are all weak strikes and cracked dies....
Yeah...easiest way to get good feedback !
Yeah, I find that eagle design a bit boring, and way too overused..
Both English/Anglo-danish saxon pennies Number 1...not illustrated in Spink...certainly anglo-saxon. Number 2...Cnut (1016-34) penny pointed...
What IS a hong kong trade dollar.???? ..I have never heard of one.
Any restrikes would be 19th century and would be worth more than the originals...
It was struck at the Soho mint, Great Britain. As for proof "technology" Britain had it by 1746, have a look at an FDC 1746 proof set for a taste....
Look at the rating 99.0....something fishy here.
I had to write about what I would buy if I won first prize...EASY !
Thanks everyone ! I've already spent the money on a brandeburg 2/3rds taler in XF....
John Adams...yeah....those coins are WAY more atracttive than the washington ones.
I am the worst metal detector in the world. I have done it like 30 times and all I have found is a 1995 cent.
Yeah, with very unclear coins...good idea to clean !
These are not the rarest coins in the world....if only! But yeah, the prices will drop etc....very nice hoard !
Very very random tiny bit of gold...but still fun to have...
$300 ? Nice coin anyway.
Yeah, I cleaned an 1816 sixpence with a toothpick, and removed all the dark spots to reveal some really nice toning....
